Nintendo Faces Ban on Some Wii, GameCube Controllers
This all comes from the recent lawsuit that Nintendo lost. Here are some more details on the situation…
Nintendo Co., the world’s biggest maker of handheld game machines, is facing a ban on sales of some controllers for its Wii and GameCube systems after it lost a bid to overturn a $21 million patent-infringement verdict. …Not all controllers were found to infringe the patent. Jurors agreed with Kyoto, Japan-based Nintendo that the rectangular Wii remote, when not used with the Wii Classic, and the “Nunchuk” controller attached to the remote don’t violate the patent at the heart of the case.
